Low-power photomicrograph that shows sheets of dense and diffuse lymphocytic infiltrate with reactive germinal center (up arrow). This extended from the submucosa and invaded the muscularis and mucosa glands and destroyed the latter (lymphoepithelial lesion [right arrow]). The overlying mucosa was ulcerated (hematoxylin and eosin magnification, ×40).
